As a starving homeless child, Madred scavenged for and ate raw taspar eggs straight from the shell. He found three in a nest in a burnt-out building. Though he planned to save the other two for later, an older boy stole them from him, but not before breaking Madred's arm. Several years later, in 2369, Gul Madred served a live taspar egg in a similar manner to a captive Captain Jean-Luc Picard in an effort to degrade him. Picard, however, refused to give in to Madred, and ate the raw Taspar, much to Madred's amusement. (TNG: "Chain of Command, Part II" )

(TLE novel: Well of Souls) Interestingly, the event referenced in Well of Souls is actually seen in The Art of the Impossible, though that book only mentions a "peculiar-looking egg" dish without naming it. Gul Madred fed Captain Jean-Luc Picard a raw taspar egg while holding him prisoner in 2368. (TNG episode: "Chain of Command, Part II") In 2376, Quark and a partner, Deru acquired land on planet Chin'toka IX from a retired Gul, paying for it with taspar eggs and kanar.
